Well, it's hard but.... I have to recognize that sometimes you're right.
At 4kPo (kiloposts) I was expecting to become a "power poster".
But no! I still have to work a little to achieve 4KiPo. :D ;)

Congratulations, Cuckoo ;) :D

//did i spell it wrong? What is supposed to be Cucu? ;)
No! It's OK.
Thank you for the English spelling which I do preffer to the French interpretation. :)

Many Romanian last names end with "cu" that sounds ugly in French. For that reason Romanians established in France usually change their name, as for example Eugen Ionescu changed to Eugne Ionesco (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eug%C3%A8ne_Ionesco).

Having these said, I can dare to presume as very possible that SuperKoko was initially the Romanian SuperKuku (or Super Cucu, the same pronunciation).
Hi, cousin!
:D :D ;)

Romanian is a phonetic language.
That means each sound is pronounced as the corresponding alphabet letter is written.
For example 'i' is always written and pronounced 'i', and there are not mute(?) letters, like in French and so on.
Exceptions are few groups: 'ce', 'ci', 'ge', 'gi', 'che', 'chi', 'ghe'. 'ghi'. For example, 'ge' is pronounced like in 'german' since 'ghe' is pronounced like in 'get'. But also, these groups have always the same pronunciation.

So if you want to say correct 'Ovidiu', do not omit any sound. (and of course, forget English :D :)).
OK, let's say like English "o-vee-dyou". Ugh, I can't imagine what was in the mind of who invented English... beer? :D ;).

That proves what I always said: German is Easier than English. You can easily learn it, of course if 'der', 'die', and 'das' do not kill you in few days... :D ;)

I'm very disappointed because my children are not studying at school German beside English. There is no use to learn dead languages like Latin and French. :D :D ;)

# 24 Re: congratulations to ovidiucucu for 4000 posts
Yes, Grammar aside, German is simpler than English - this language has fewer words in general, and a good fraction of the words are actually a result of conjoining two or more simpler ones...
You can easily learn it, of course if 'der', 'die', and 'das' do not kill you in few days... As far as Grammar goes... I must be blessed with more lives than a cat... :D

That is too much :D .. Seriously, I have started believing this - SuperCucu might be your cousin lost in some big fest-market some 20 years ago! :D

The reunion should be celebrated with a "Congratulations Cucu brothers" thread! :D

Latin is still alive. It is the official language of the Vatican.
French... What's this language? :D

Well, Latin is solely used for official purposes. The actual used languages are Italian, German, English, Spanish, French and Portuguese, with Italian being most commonly used.

It's a Gallic dialect with some Latin words.
First latin words borrowed by french were "Alea Iacta Est" during the first World Backgammon Championship.
Finalists: Julius Caesar and Vercingetorix.

Yes, except sometimes (especially when sizing controls in the German versions of application) we have trouble with conjoined words like the well known:

Hottentottenstottertrottelmutterlattengitterkotterbeutelrattenattentater

# 37 Re: congratulations to ovidiucucu for 4000 posts
A book called "The German Language Book" was published in Dortmund. It tells about the customs of Hottentottens. It tells how kangaroos (Beutelratten) are caught and locked in cages (Kotter) covered with a fabric (Lattengitter) meant to protect them from the rain. These cages are called in German "fabric covered cages" (Lattengitterkotter) and when they contain a kangaroo they are called Lattengitterkotterbeutelratten.

One day, the Hottentottens caught an assassin (Attentater) accused of killing a Hottentotten mother (Hottentottenmutter) that had a babbled silly boy (Stottertrottel). Such a woman is called Hottentottenstottertrottelmutter in German, and her assassin a Hottentottenstottertrottelmutterattentater. So after being caught, the assassin is thrown in a cage (Beutelrattenlattengitterkotter), but he escapes. Everybody leaves to search for him. After a while, a Hottentotten warrior returns shouting:

"I caught the assassin (Attentater)!"

"Really, which one," the chief asks.

"The Lattengitterkotterbeutelratterattentater" says the warrior.

"What do you mean, the assassin from the fabric covered cage," asks the chief.

""Yes, yes, the Hottentottenstottertrottelmutterattentater" answers the warrior.

"Ah, that's more like it," says the chief. You should have said from the very beginning that you caught Hottentottenstottertrottelmutterlattengitterkotterbeutelrattenattentater.
